Environmental Artist Tony Plant Transforms the Beaches of England into Swirling Canvases



Environmental Artist Tony Plant Transforms the Beaches of England into Swirling Canvases — Armed with little more than standard garden rake, environmental artist Tony Plant transforms the breathtakingly scenic beaches of England into temporary canvases for his swirling sand drawings. Each work is created below the tidal zones where the sand is flatter and wetter, allowing for greater contrast as he quickly drags the rake into various geometric patterns. The beauty however is fleeting as the artworks last only a few hours before being consumed by the incoming tide. Recently Plant’s work was used in the music video above by Light Colours Sound for recording artist Ruarri Joseph If you liked this also check out the sand art of Jim Denevan and Andres Amadore.
